C unit with a 16 foot box

[twodogsdaddy]

Thx box is not 96 inches wide. The gross vehicle weight is 19000lbs. I'm not absolutely sure yet but I believe the truck empty weight should be a little under 13000lbs. Is this totally out of line? I will be driving solo but I think the operating cost of a D unit or for that matter a true C unit would be prohibitive. This is an E550 with a 7.3 liter diesel.

The 16 foor box is the useable space box is a little longer

I would also be concerned whether that unit would be dock high.

I've always spec'd a "little bit" bigger than needed and not smaller. You know your market and your company, what do they think? Being a medium duty may not be what they want. Better check first?
